I'm looking for input on how you might suggest I go about making a 120-figure "army" of standing figures for a game, and maintaining a high build quality while doing so.
I'm new to papercraft in this manner, and wondered if anyone would share their experience in approaching this project... I want to make a DIY version of the Star Wars board game Queen's Gambit (out of print, circa 2000, and which sells for $100 or better every time one hits eBay) for my sons and I.
This means making an army of around 120 figures -- mostly droids, some gungans, and a scattering of single characters -- all about 1 inch tall.
I'm very comfortable with Photoshop and design. I saw one person who had done so using wood cubes to which they had attached stickers. While that was functional, it did not achieve the level of realism I'd like to attain.
This site, boardgamegeek, has a lot of images of the game, including the "block version" which is still quite good: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/images/boardgame/939/star-wars-the-queens-gambit
If there are existing threads with a similar focus, or tips, let me know!
Thank you,
james
